Restaurants in Stanford

“Cafeteria in a university, can’t expect too much. Food was fresh, liked the crispy onion added and the sauce. Service was not ideal, the staff there didn’t like to answer questions about the food.”

“Una tienda que refleja el pensar y sentir de la comunidad académica. Excelentes libros!”

“It helped that it was a beautiful day. I had a panini while the wife had some hummus and veggies and my son had chicken quesadillas. The guacamole and hummus were especially good. Very nice staff.”

“Great dining hall for students located in west campus. It is very comparable to Arillaga Dining Hall with less food options and a bit less hours open. There is lots of seating available both inside and outside the dining hall. The only downside is that it is far from everything else and it is a bit confusing to find and get to at first.”

“The sandwich that myself and my father got was great especially with the buy one great one free deal I would have gave five stars but my sprite and chips was forgotten and they charge me for it. They need to make sure everything is in my order before delivery especially since I was charged for it…”

“My boyfriend and I were assisting with a drive-thru event happening at my church for Pentacost. As he was manning the entrance to the drive-thru, he was able to talk with the owner, who was chilling at the tables, about the business, and that convinced him to have us eat lunch there for our break.”

“Phenomenal food at a student-friendly price! Had lunch with the wife today at this magnificent establishment and it was terrific. This cafeteria is part of the Stanford Graduate School of Business and is apparently where all of the b-school eager beavers refuel on sustenance. ? I particularly appreciated the, oh-so-clever, names that accompanied each of the food stations. ? Haha, you can totally tell this is where all of the MBA people hang out! Definitely get lunch here if you're in the area!”

“Food was good & lots of it. Wait staff seemed like they were new with one experienced person. Host was very attentive. The place looks nicer & more comfortable than Coupa was. Not many people there on a football playoff Sunday. Will definitely go back but as non-tech seniors we're not real comfortable with the online ordering”

“Decent place on Stanford campus. Not sure if it's extraordinary, but a nice place to visit regularly, considering the decent quality of food for the relatively low price.”

“Incredibly friendly atmosphere. Perfect for studying and sipping on a warm drink. Staff is friendly and genuine. Food is served in HUGE portions and you can’t beat the price. Have been here countless times!”

“All time favorite cafe latte spot. With waffle & strawberries. At 7:30am!”

“There’s no place I’d rather be than Stern at 12:30 PM on a Wednesday for some amazing burgers, great company, and great vibes. Stern has made my time at Stanford better, and I am immensely grateful.”

“One of the best places to get lunch on Stanford campus! Good mix of salads, sandwiches, and pizza on offer. I've enjoyed each thing I tried from them, and have gotten coffee and pastries from here often as well.”

“Jimmy's serves awesome food and his staff is the best catering crew around.”

“Chai is great, tastes basically as good as Coupa's”

“IAbsolutely love this cafe! I always come here for the Havana cappuccino - it’s so delicious. Today, I tried their salad for the first time, and I have to say, this place is a hidden gem for salads. The signature avocado salad is incredibly tasty! unlike anything I’ve had elsewhere, and I keep craving it. It feels healthy and fresh, too. All the cookies are great as well. I’m so happy this cafe is close to where I work!”

“Halal Chicken!! Also: the food is good and the staff is kind.

Inside knowledge: you can ask for a tray at the front.
Con: Sensory Overload at all times.
Suggestions: sit on balcony and/or noise cancelling earbuds.
Recommendations: Sensory friendly area with no or limited noise especially for individuals that are auditory defensive.”

“lots to see. you need 2 hours min. also sculptured gardens”

“Starbucks has good AND inexpensive ☕ if you bring a mug! It's $0.50 for refill ☕ at the Stanford University Starbucks if you bring your own mug AND the customers and staff are exceptionally charming! Get here early though! The trail from Los Altos to Stanford University through the back of Gunn High School is exceptionally therapeutic and the Starbucks ☕ at Stanford University definitely tastes better than other Starbucks, and everyone so far is AWESOME! I normally avoid Starbucks but the Stanford University Starbucks is on par with the Narita Airport Starbucks in my opinion for service and charm. ☕☕☕☕☕☕❤️”

“Cute cafe on Stanford’s campus. I loved the ample outdoor seating options! I got a burger which came with chips. It was good, but the burger patty could have used a little more seasoning in my opinion. The burger was also a bit pricey for the portion size you are getting, but that’s Stanford generally, so do not hold them against it. Staff is very kind & accommodating.”

“They have many. Places to eat that are familiar to folks like Starbucks coffee, Jamba Juice,Panda Express and Subway. There are also some independent places like the Coho Coffee House and the treehouse now both have very good food and beer available.”

“The burrito was okay. The good is the size — it’s pretty big. The bad part is the taste for me. The chicken had too much BBQ sauce and wasn’t fresh I think. I didn’t finish it because it was very mid. Nachos were good. I think if you are in between choices at that place, get something but burrito because my colleagues got other food and liked it more.”

“Coupa Cafe had the best coffee of anywhere I went in Palo Alto. I loved the flavor and intensity of the Marron in particular!”

“Great place to have beer plenty of options the atmosphere is awesome. Good music and good vibes I will definitely keep coming back. I recommend the beer flight or the sangria.”

“Food taste good but I don't know why the ladies had that bad attitude all the time.
Every time we came for lunch is the same bad attitude from the ladies that works here.
They should have people with better attitude”

“Greetings fellow sandwich seekers!
I have not visited in many years and wanted to share my recent experience. Depending on your needs, this could be a nice resource and alternative to other food options nearby. Sandwich, chips and soda came to $17.77 although I did not feel especially lucky: [ 7 | 7 | 7 ]
The service was friendly, skilled and efficient, and yet the takeaway was either I am out of touch with food options on-campus or a high-profile music concert was about to begin in the courtyard based on the meal co$t. In other words, if you are looking for a drink and a snack, they have a nice variety of both. If you are looking for an affordable lunch option that you might consider making a habit, this may inspire you to find your favorite bread at the grocery store, to meal prep your must-have toppings and try the DIY sandwich crafting path instead. If you had a tuna kit and a slice of cheese, would they sell you two nice slices of bread? Maybe next time!”
